- Homogeneous mixtures have a uniform composition throughout. Their components are uniformly distributed and are indistinguishable from each other, appearing as a single phase.
- Heterogeneous mixtures have a non-uniform composition. Their components are not uniformly distributed and can often be seen as separate phases or particles.
